Happy Friday Everyone,
Have you had a go at this weeks community challenge yet?
Not to worry you still have time to bust a move or two and send it to your teacher.
I thought i’d help you with some suggestions of dance moves:
Want to keep learning and dancing away, how about you try out our Dance Comprehension work where you watch a range of dances and answer questions on them, click below to carry out this fun activity.
Now that the trees are in leaf and many of the flowers in our gardens are beginning to bloom, I thought we could try making decorative eye masks using natural materials.
Wearing decorative masks can be traced back to history of Venice and its carnival celebrations. The tradition of mask-wearing started in the 13th century when Venetians held many celebrations and parties. They would wear elaborate masks to hide their identity, just like you may do at Hallowe’en.
Click on the Sway below to find a step-by-step guide for making your own mask. It’s very simple, and you need only a few resources. Remember to ask for an adult’s permission first!
Here is another quick tutorial: How to make a Leaf Mask
Don’t worry if you can’t find any leaves or flowers – you could cut out leaf and flower shapes from coloured tissue or paper, or even draw your own.
Here is a link to a simple mask template which you can download and print out: Mask Template
Once your mask is finished, why not make up a short play and then act it out while wearing your mask? I look forward to seeing all your creations!
Hold Still, a portrait of our nation in 2020, is an ambitious community project to create a unique photographic portrait which captures the spirit, mood, hopes, fears and feelings of the nation as we continue to deal with isolation and uneasy times.
The Duchess and the National Portrait Gallery invite you to submit your own photographic portrait, taken during these extraordinary times, which responds to one of the following themes:
You can find more information at : Hold Still
We would really love for you all to give this a go whether you decide to submit it or not you can always share this with your teacher.
I’ve teamed up with a friend of mine who is a photographer in her spare time, she has very kindly created a powerpoint with some helpful tips to help support and develop your photography skills.

Are you up for some dancing?
Here is the link to the song on Youtube. You can also find it on other platforms such as Spotify.
There are different sections to the song and you could probably think of lots of actions.
Such as dancing around, saxophone, actually walking on sunshine and big dance gestures.
Get the whole family involved, you could send in more than once clip.
Health and Wellbeing/Expressive Arts
Remember, we all believe that having a growth mindset is very important so the activities are organised into the following levels.
Let’s leap into the learning pit and learn from our mistakes to achieve GREAT things! The teachers will be sharing their attempts too.
Keep checking the blog, please leave COMMENTS and send your work to your teacher via email/Seesaw or add to your Sway so that we can stay connected.
For the final day of our Health Fortnight, I thought we could have a bit of fun. You know how adults always tell you, “Don’t play with your food”? Well, now’s your chance!
Today’s Feel-Good activity combines creativity with imagination AND healthy food. Have you guessed what it is yet?
Your challenge is to make a fabulous creature using only fruit and vegetables.
Have a look!
Do remember to ask for an adult’s permission before taking any food to do this activity, and make sure that you are being supervised if you are using any sharp kitchen utensils.
If you would like to email me photos, I can make a Sway to show everyone what you have created. Have fun!

As David said in his video, he started off his interest in motor sports from a very young age in a small town in the South West of Scotland. From many years of hard work and perseverance he went on to compete in 15 seasons of Formula One between 1994 and 2008, taking 13 Grand Prix victories and 62 podium finishes,.
I would like to personally thank David Coulthard for replying and taking the time to create this truly inspirational video for our very own Methlick School pupils and community.
